OpenMRS Development using Concept Dictionary Best-Practices

It's been a long time since I've blogged about an OpenMRS dev hint, so prepare to be hit by the firehose. If you're not a dev, you might want to skip this one. :-)

Are we there yet?

It's a pretty exciting time for the Mirebalais EMR team, as the hospital is going to see its first patients on Tuesday, and we're pushing out our final code fixes and features before "1.0"

I wanted to post a few pictures of the work we've been doing.

Here is our last daily standup before deploying the code. (If I look like I just woke up, well, it's because we moved them to 6am Seattle time for the week while some of the team was doing trainings in Haiti, and I had just woken up.)

Next up, are Mark and Nano pairing on deploying the final* code

* = it was "final" at the time, but of course we needed to make a few tweaks over the weekend :-)

More pics to come, of things that are more visually interesting than software developers. :-) (We may not look very exciting doing our day jobs, but we still deserve a little bit of glory...)

Working Efficiently

Patient Dashboard, current status

We haven't been very good at posting recently (okay...we've been terrible). But it's always a good time to pick up writing again, and since I'm the first poster in a while, I can talk about what we've been up to recently.

In a word, "working." In three words, "working very hard." And in three more, "getting lots done"! :-) But I should say more about how...
